Tiles & Stones

Tiles are an excellent material to use for flooring since they can withstand high traffic thanks to their durability, and are easy to maintain. Stone slabs also provide similar benefits as flooring.

Wall tiles have lower functional demands than floor tiles so can be more versatile in design. Glazed tile and stone make ideal wall coverings for bathrooms and kitchens since they’ll be protected from stains and won’t absorb moisture. Stone cladding tiles provide another option for wall finishes where the texture and variation of stone suit the room or exterior.

Ceiling tiles can improve the acoustics of a room and enhance ambient lighting. They can be made from a wide variety of materials.

Concrete tiles are a durable and versatile flooring option, offering a range of colors and patterns that can mimic more expensive materials or stand out with unique artisanal designs.

Outdoor tiles or outdoor pavers purposes should be outdoor approved, as many from the ArchiPro range are. In particular, they’ll need exceptional moisture resistance and protection from frost. They are seeing a recent rise in popularity in Australia.

Stone slabs are large, flat pieces of natural stone used for a variety of applications. From countertops to flooring, stone slabs bring the beauty and durability of natural stone to any space, adding a timeless and luxurious touch.

Tiles and stones are both extremely durable and hygienic. They’re easy to maintain, requiring just a regular sweep and occasional mop to remain stunning. Used outdoors in Australia, tiles and stones can be used to create permeable surfaces, allowing water to filter through to the ground underneath. Not only are there a vast range of tile colours and stone appearances but they can also be given different finishes which give you even more aesthetic and functional choices. In stone and tile projects, selecting the finish according to the surface and exposure helps the material perform as intended.

Remember that glazed tiles, which feature a glass wear layer, are more suited to low-traffic areas if used for flooring. Generally, the larger the room, the larger the tiles and stones you should select to install in it. If grout is selected in a contrasting colour to the tiles or stones, it will highlight the shape of the tile, which is great for interesting shapes like hexagons or triangles. Conversely, selecting a grout colour similar to the colour of the tile or stone will achieve a more seamless look.
